3 February 2025The NJC Trade Unions have now submitted their joint pay claim for local government services (‘Green Book’) for 2025/6. The claim seeks:
- An increase of at least £3,000 across all NJC spinal column points
- A clear plan to reach a minimum pay rate of £15 an hour
- An extra day of annual leave for all staff
- A reduction in the working week by two hours, with no loss of pay
Principal authorities will now be consulted on the NJC unions’ claim at online regional pay briefings scheduled to take place between 11 February and 13 March. The National Employers will then consider all consultation feedback before deciding how best to respond to the pay claim.
We will keep you advised of developments.
